Canon Vixia HF 24p pulldown interlacing artifacts - Page 2

Why not shoot 30p (or more correctly, 30PsF) if these 24p pull-down interlace artifacts are so problematic?

BTW - I see that Canon state that their new HFS series AVCHD camcorders (HFS21, HFS200) will (set for release April 2010) offer 'native 24p' recording, in addition to the '60i-wrapped' 24p (Cinema) mode. About time too. I wonder if its still PsF though.

Well, true cinematic look worths it.

Also, while in 24 fps moderately fast pans look "stuttery", in 30 fps they are already too "jittery", and I personally have problems following them. I tried 30p and don't like it much, 24p is still the best to me, and 60i comes second.

what kind of 24p camera taints the footage like that during interlacing?

One that encodes with hard pulldown and a not-very-well-implemented codec. I've seen it occasionally on my HV20 HDV camera, as well.
